Hunting the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King
Gu Yuena said, "Then I'll summon Di Tian tomorrow, and you can go directly to the Demonic Whale Sea Area to hunt down that Deep Sea Demonic Whale King."
"And what about you?" Yu Mingxiao pondered for a moment and said, "Will you leave as soon as Di Tian arrives tomorrow, or when?"
"You can't bear to part with me?"
A faint smile appeared on Gu Yuena's lips; she felt that she had finally gained the upper hand in the argument.
Yu Mingxiao chuckled upon hearing this, "That's right, I really can't bear to part with you. Not only are you pleasing to the eye, but you can also be of great help to me."
"So you've finally spoken your mind?" Gu Yuena rolled her eyes at him.
"Yes, is there a problem?" Yu Mingxiao asked.
"No problem, go and strengthen your Soul Power."
Gu Yuena burrowed into the covers, but a hint of reluctance quietly rose in her heart.
Yu Mingxiao gave her a sense of novelty she had never experienced before. She didn't say these words, afraid that if she did, she would really not want to leave.
Yu Mingxiao glanced at her, sighed softly, and closed his eyes to continue his cultivation.
The next day.
Yu Mingxiao took Gu Yuena and checked out of the hotel.
Today was the day to set sail, and he and Gu Yuena strolled along the beach, chatting and laughing.
Even though they were about to part ways, he only wanted to leave behind laughter, not a trace of sadness.
Before they knew it, the two had arrived at a secluded spot. Gu Yuena looked around and said calmly, "This will do. I'll summon Di Tian."
Yu Mingxiao raised his hand, signaling her to make a move.
She slowly took out a Black Dragon's Reverse Scale, and with a thought, she said, "Di Tian, come see me immediately."
Deep within the Star Dou Great Forest, Di Tian was dozing at the bottom of a lake.
Even though the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had already been snatched away by Yu Mingxiao, its monotonous life meant that it had nothing to do except sleep.
Upon suddenly hearing Gu Yuena's telepathic message, he trembled slightly, abruptly opened his eyes, quickly locked onto her location, tore through space, and descended.
"My lord, what are your orders?"
Di Tian glanced around and then bowed slightly in greeting.
Gu Yuena said calmly, "Di Tian, I am about to return to the Lake of Life. Later, you will help Yu Mingxiao hunt down the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King."
"The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King?" Di Tian frowned slightly.
"Do you recognize this Soul Beast?" Gu Yuena asked, raising her eyes.
Di Tian said, "Reporting to my lord, this Soul Beast can be described as the overlord of the ocean. Its age and cultivation are close to a million years. I know it, but we don't have any special relationship."
He once traveled around Douluo Planet. Besides the rapid turnover of human powerhouses and the emergence of new talents, he knew most of the powerful figures from the continent and the sea.
"How does its strength compare to yours?" Gu Yuena pressed.
"If we were at sea, this guy would have the home-field advantage, and even I wouldn't be able to gain an advantage. But if we were on land, it wouldn't be a match for me," Di Tian said truthfully.
Gu Yuena nodded slightly and said softly, "Then let's go to the Demonic Whale Sea Area. I'll cover you from the side. After we hunt down this Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, I'll return to the Lake of Life with you."
"My lord..." Di Tian hesitated, wanting to speak but stopping himself.
Gu Yuena asked, "Is there anything else?"
"Forgive my bluntness, but I'm afraid Yu Mingxiao won't be of much help if he goes. In fact, I'll have to be distracted by protecting him," Di Tian said in a low voice.
Hunting the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King was already extremely difficult, and now he had to bring along a burden. Even he couldn't help but feel resentful.
Yu Mingxiao had already anticipated that Di Tian would question him, so he immediately looked at Gu Yuena, hoping that she would speak up for him.
Gu Yuena rolled her eyes at him and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, Mingxiao's strength is no longer what it used to be."
"He absorbed the remnant soul and Spirit Bone of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings, undergoing a transformation in his Martial Soul. He now has absolute control over ice and water, and should be able to restrain the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King."
"Such a thing is true?" Di Tian asked in astonishment.
The remnant soul of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings... How come he keeps running into anything related to the Dragon Clan? It's truly unbelievable.
And last time, his Light Sacred Dragon Martial Soul evolved into the Radiant Dragon King, which also puzzled him greatly.
"That's right, Di Tian." Yu Mingxiao smiled, "I may not be able to be a main force, but I can still do a good job of supporting and limiting the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King."
"With the combined efforts of the two of us, it has no chance of survival."
"You rascal." Di Tian pursed his lips, his expression complicated.
Since Yu Mingxiao appeared, countless powerful members of their Soul Beast Clan have become resources for his growth. Now, they've even started eyeing Ferocious Beast are nearly a million years old—their appetite is far too great.
He didn't know if his master's investment was worthwhile, but seeing one powerful Soul Beast after another die, he couldn't help but feel a sense of sorrow for the passing of his fellow beasts.
"Don't worry, although I'm not exactly a good person, since the Soul Beast Clan helped me, I will definitely repay them in the future." Yu Mingxiao seemed to see through Di Tian's thoughts and gently comforted him.
Di Tian felt somewhat relieved and nodded. "I still remember the location of the Demonic Whale Sea Area. Let's cross space directly there."
"Thank you for your trouble." Yu Mingxiao took a step back and raised his hand in acknowledgment.
He raised his hand, the black dragon scales on his arm glowing, and with a sudden tear in the void, space shattered like a mirror, and the dark spatial cracks expanded, transforming into a dark passage.
The three stepped into the passage one after another, and when they reappeared, they were standing in the void above a vast blue sea.
Yu Mingxiao was slightly taken aback upon seeing this, and his body, having lost its support, continued to fall.
Fortunately, he reacted very quickly, immediately activating all his Soul Power to stabilize himself and hover in mid-air.
Now, his Soul Power is no less than that of Super Douluo, and he can fly through the air using only his Soul Power.
"Where is this guy hiding? How do we get him to come out?" Di Tian asked.
Gu Yuena looked at Yu Mingxiao and said, "You're the one who wanted to hunt the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, so shouldn't you be the one to find the prey?"
"I'll try to probe." With a thought, Yu Mingxiao activated his Soul Bone Skill, Spirit Detection, to cover the seabed. The Radiant Flying Dragon Wings burst forth from his body, and he sped across the sea.
Moments later, his Spirit Detection detected the silhouette of a huge whale.
The whale lay quietly in the wide trench, seemingly asleep.
Because it was only using his Spirit Detection vision, he couldn't make out the whale's color. He only noticed that it was enormous, with bony spikes on its back and sharp teeth all over its mouth. Most strikingly, one of its eyes was blind!
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, this whale is definitely the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King.
Yu Mingxiao said, "I've found this guy."
Di Tian flew to his side and said in a deep voice, "Shall I lure it out?"
"No, I'll do it. Let's give it a surprise."
Yu Mingxiao shook his head with a smile, his Martial Soul instantly possessing him. White, red, and blue dragon scales shimmered, and his left arm blazed with icy blue light. The power of the Ice Dragon King Spirit Bone erupted, and he slammed his palm into the sea.
The sea surface within a radius of several miles Ice Seal rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The seawater above the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King froze, layer upon layer, forming a thousand-foot-long ice shard that hung above the trench, carrying a bone-chilling cold as it crashed down!
